I found out about this service through a friend, so I used it for my wife’s 50th birthday. It was 100% great. Very clever. It is a very smoothly designed and easy to use service, the web interface makes it easy to keep track and organize recordings, it was great to get emails each time a recording came in and to be able to listen to them immediately via the attached MP3’s, and the podcast-like interface with iTunes ended up being extremely convenient and useful. I have to give special kudos to the customer service: the response was very quick, very friendly, and extremely accommodating to some special requests and situations for my case. And beyond that, the best part was sitting next to my wife as she listened to all the voices of people I was able to find from her life, some she hadn’t heard from in decades. As we listened, she constantly commented on how amazing it was to have these people’s voices recorded and especially to have all those stories recorded. Thank you VERY much. Best. Gift. Ever.

Joel Parker

This is a great gift idea for someone special in your life.

Brenda A Rushing

This was the perfect gift for my Mom’s 90th Birthday. With her family living all across the country this was one way for us all to be “together” with her. She doesn’t need stuff, she just wants to hear their voices and memories. This CD provided that! And all the details were easy to follow! Thank you so much! I recommend this to anyone!

Joan Carlson Brand

Great gift – a real priceless gift that captures a life of great memories – very easy to use and do

Brad Singer

I am so impressed with Life on Record. I ordered a CD for my Dad’s 80th birthday. We had 50 people call in and the instructions were so easy to follow for everyone. I had a problem trying to download the recordings to my iTunes account. I called the Life on Record 1-800 number and the owner, personally walked me through it. I will recommend this company to anyone.

Dan Decraene

What a wonderful gift for our mom’s 70th!!!

Elizabeth Zadrozny

I just clicked submit for my LifeOnRecord cd. We created this as a 60th birthday gift for my boss. The instructions were crystal clear and we ended up with almost 50 well wishes. I know our boss will LOVE LOVE LOVE this gift and I can’t wait until it arrives in the mail! I would recommend this idea to anyone and will likely use the service again myself!

Gail Bradfield

Thanks for such a great service. I mean, the service itself is a great idea and easy to do, but even more so, the support you provide: the suggested script for the greeting, the suggested script for the email, the tips page on the site, and all of your instructions make it incredibly easy for me to setup and for everyone to use. Out of 58 recordings only 2 were redos; everyone else got their recording done in one session! I can’t tell you how much this gift will mean to my wife when she hears it.
Thanks!

Zachary Zelinski

I want to thank Life On Record and it’s awesome team that helped us to honor our Mom…the anchor and glue of our family. She has taught us all how to love God and others by her example. She loved her cd and it will be a cherished keepsake for her. Check them out for any special occasion:http://www.lifeonrecord.com Great company, great gift!

Kimberly Taylor Wasserman

If you are not familiar with this service it will be the most memorable gift you have ever given someone – and the most appreciated. They make it simple and seamless. All you need is to email or tell folks about the 800 number. I did this for my parents 60th wedding anniversary. What was nice is that everyone regardless of distance was able to virtually participate in honoring my parents on that day. I would even say – don’t wait for an event. Surprise someone with a – we appreciate you day using this. That will really be meaningful! It is all about creating memories and holding on to those precious moments. This is even better than pictures! Try it.

Discover the No Risk Gift the Recipient will LOVE… or It’s Free

How can we make such a promise?

Because we have a 10+ year track record of hearing how much people love LifeOnRecord.

Recipients tell us they love hearing voices of friends and family talking about their positive traits and talents.

They love capturing the voices of kids at a special time.

And we often hear that after a loved one who called in passes away, hearing their voice on the keepsake brings comfort.

We take pride in the fact that nearly everyone that purchases LifeOnRecord would purchase it again.

That’s how we can make our promise.

We know that the vast majority of the time the recipient will love their LifeOnRecord gift, but if you don’t, we’ll refund your money with no hassle or pushback.

"I thought this gift idea had potential, but at the beginning I thought it might end up kind of cheesy. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it was far from cheesy, and, in fact, was appreciated by not only the recipient, but also the people doing the recordings. They appreciated the opportunity to say what they had always wanted to say, but were never really given the opportunity to follow through until Life on Record."

- Sharon Robinson - Mead, WA

Got Questions? We have Answers...

Here are the top 5 frequently asked questions we receive from our customers.

You can create one of the most memorable gifts in the world in as little as 1-2 days. We've had people purchase LifeOnRecord one afternoon, email everyone (and post on Facebook) that same evening asking them to call in within the next 24 hours, and present the recordings to the recipient the very next evening. On the other hand, people that love to plan things ahead will sign-up months before an event. LifeOnRecord is flexible to your timeline.
Here are some helpful tips if you are short on time:

You will receive your account instructions email within just a few minutes after ordering online (if you don't see it right away, make sure to check your spam or junk folder). We provide a sample communication that you can copy and paste to send to people. That communication asks others to forward the email on, so that you can cast the net wide.

People really don't need that much time to call in. Just make sure you give them a deadline (we give you some helpful tips in your account instructions email).

Even if you order a keepsake, you can deliver the recordings electronically to the recipient on the day of the event, and tell them the nice keepsake will arrive later. That way the recipient has something to play on their birthday or anniversary, and can still look forward to receiving a keepsake.

If the recipient lives far away you can send them a link to a special public web page just for them that has the recordings. You can label the recordings so they are meaningful (e.g. "Bob Smith's Birthday Wish"), and sequence them in a way that makes sense to make it more meaningful.

You can request the keepsake at any point within a year after ordering. As long as you request the keepsake by 3PM Central time, we ship it out the next business day. Keepsakes take 3-6 days to arrive with the free shipping option, although delivery time is not guaranteed. We also have options to ship via USPS Priority Mail (2-3 days), FedEx 2-Day, and FedEx Overnight.

LifeOnRecord is available from every country on the planet!
Callers from the US, Canada, and Caribbean can call toll-free: 1-800-437-3009.
Callers from outside the US, Canada, and Caribbean have six free options to contribute recordings:

Use Skype - Callers can phone-in by dialing 1-800-437-3009 using Skype (this is treated as a free call in most countries). If you are in a country that does not allow free Skype calling to toll free numbers, you can instead make a free call to the Skype name "LifeOnRecord1" which will route you to the same place as the toll-free number. Note: The Skype User LifeOnRecord1 may not show as online in Skype, but you will still be able to connect to it. You may need to wait a few seconds for the connection to be made.

Use one of our "local" global numbers. Callers can dial one of the local country phone numbers listed below which route directly to LifeOnRecord.
